Sabbatical Journey by Henri J M Nouwen
Revolution> will contain writing by Russians and by foreigners who went to Russia and for whom the Russian Revolution was a political litmus test. The themes--hunger and heating, the limits of personal freedom, the infallibility of the party, free love, the role of art in the revolution--dominated twentieth century intellectual life and continue to resonate today. Many books on the Russian Revolution will be published in the centenary year, but>Revolution> will be unique in portraying this momentous event through the writings of those who witnessed it (or its immediate after-effects). FollowingNo Man's Land and>No Pasaran, it is an anthology that vividly portrays the many sides of an event that changed the course of world history--and is still contested today. Leninists, Bolsheviks, anarchists and communists, thugs, registered housebreakers - what a muddle What a Satanic vinaigrette What immense work - to raise once more and cleanse from all this garbage the great idea of socialism. --Teffi| SKU | Unavailable |
